Frosty Fridays, the discounted public ice skating sessions at Carlson Ice Arena are back, but there is one important thing you need to know before you go.
Even though it feels like Spring outside, there's still some ice skating fun to be had here in Rockford.
Rockford Park District's Carlson Ice Arena is reopening to the public! If your kids have officially done EVERYTHING they can around the house, and in your back yard, why not take them ice skating...
Looking outside, I can see that the problematic weather that pushed back this year's Illinois Snow Sculpting Competition a week (the weather interfered with snow-making equipment) is quite obviously gone.
The Eclipse Lagoon at Nicholas Conservatory and Gardens in Rockford is now open for outdoor ice skating, and they're offering something brand new this year.
One of Rockford's greatest winter events is the Snow Sculpting Competition. Personally, I struggle to get a snow man to stand up in my yard, can you relate? Snow sculpting is truly an art and it's so impressive when the pieces are complete...
